What instrument would you use to measure the length of a segment The compass or the straightedge?
To measure the length of a segment, you would use a straightedge. A straightedge provides a reference line to determine the distance between two points, while a compass is typically used for drawing arcs or circles rather than measuring lengths directly. Although a compass can help in constructing segments of a specific length, it does not measure length itself.
What instruments are used to measure Clints and grikes?
